[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I constantly excuse myself to "get back to work" and when asked personal questions say I like to keep my personal life personal. Him: do you like dogs or cats better? Me: I like getting my work done before the higher-ups come asking for it, excuse me.[/quote] This. I once had a colleague ask me what I “did” over the weekend. I shut it down, fired off an email to HR, and now he leaves me alone. Word got around pretty quick, so I haven’t had to worry about any other nonsense, either. It is a workplace. People need to respect boundaries.[/quote] Are you ND? People ask me that and I guess it’s their way of trying to relate to you. They expect a conversation about interesting places to visit so they can get ideas for reasonably priced things they can do with their own families. I started noticing people get kind of angry if you say you didn’t do anything. They take it as if you don’t like them or don’t want to be friends. I’m autistic and a way to fit in is to have something to say that you did over the weekend for small talk because normal people like small talk conversations. [/quote]
